"Lady BLAH BLAH"..WHATEVER! There is only ONE great vocalist I HAVE to meet. His name is Geoff Tate!

[bluesruley2k]

@bluesruley2k Bite it you stupid piece of garbage! I know what you're up to! Lady "gotta hav u" is goin DOWN!

[dimetonn]

i love them so much...and geoff is a great man..

[recman1207]

This 'Shit's for real!!! F-ing censorship sucks. Great post. Thx.

[bluebeard385]

I was there. I had a backstage pass. They were great they played three songs. And then I got to meet them outside.

[Mercs4Hire1]

Man i just caught this on youtube. you did a fine job man they sounded awesome.

[MKHellBilly55]

Geoff can still sing his ass off, great post

[clarkdef]

Im from New Zealand and I am a big fan of theirs, thx for the upload

[sirstrongbad]

the ending makes the whole video.. pretty cool :-)

[rycheandroll]

Ryche On!

[antimarxism]

That was a fine performance and a good song. Should have had a tad bit of reverb though.

[alteredlame666]

@antimarxism An astute observation, my friend. Especially on the vocals. Good performance, tho, I agree.

[gkling33]

Great show in SF last night. They still got it!!

[Flaggius]

of course they've got it. They ain't that old. Edbass, Whip, Ames and Rockenfield are only in their mid 40s and Tate's 50 and I'd say Lundgren is around 25.

[einarabelc5]

The end was the best part....Umm where is Tonguey?

[ExtravagantNoodle]

Saw the show a week ago in NYC, they rocked it as usual. I am digging the new album. I continue to be impressed by Queensryche, been listening to them since '82 and at this point they are a major part of the aural and barometric fabric of my life.

[rychefan01]

I can relate to that ... Same here... 82 and never looked back! Keep on rychen my friend!

[ZillaFitness]

American Soldier is a ridiculously good album. I cannot stop listening.  Very compelling and brilliant. Bravo fellas.

[Rikrik1138]

This show kicked immeasurable amounts of ass in Portland Oregon the other night!!

[ladyheartagram]

awesome! can't wait till the concert.

[tinaham2007]

Please find someone else to work the camera. I feel a bit seasick now.

[BobRiversShow]

Give a guy a break, you know how hard it is to capture video in a radio station? I had to stand on a pelican case to get a clear shot, doesn't really allow for a tripod. Still, the critique has been noted and I will do better, I promise.

Love,

Mike

[hillena]

Hun.... do not apologize my god you have seen/met/filmed Geoff Tate!! .....I was never going to be able to hold something besides a large bucket to drool in, this was very nice thank you for filming and uploading!!

[alteredlame666]

@BobRiversShow Holy SHIT!!! Is this the REAL MIKE???lol Hey, Mike, what was it like meeting Geoff?

[andreasportelli]

the f........g zoom!!!! forget it!!!!!!!

[DaddyBigNutz01]

@tinaham2007 have you ever tried to film something that was unscripted? its not easy.

[flamenkoit]

stunning

[serpentskiss3]

quite.............

[bigzz1973]

what is the name of this song

[pygmyprawn]

Which one?

The one at the start is 'If I were King', the live acoustic one is 'Sliver', both off their new album American Soldier.

[blacky156]

dude the guys in the back are like WTF????

[pygmyprawn]

AHAHAHA, this STUFF'S for real...gotta love that censoring.

Looks like Parker's face didn't quite make it either. Just a little "Hi" - what a kid. Big career in front of him.

[Hulkamaniac418]

Did I see Whip wearing glasses?  That's a first.

Geoff at the end was kinda creepy...

[NOaverageJOE]

Geoff sounds way better here than he does on the CD! Why is that?

[rknrll1]

He ALWAYS sounds better live... Ive tried to figure it out 100 times but Im baffled...lol

His voice has benn pretty off the last few records, each time its like "O no he lost his voice" untill he sings live... Unbelievable

[serpentskiss3]

It's live baby!!

and.......

I feel the American Soldier CD (and recent past CDs) lack dynamics and punch. Some parts seemed buried in the mix and others oddly (to my ears) forward.

mixing, production?
